yanky surely should not be offended by his letzonus being mentioned, (and apparently he wasnt)
there are actually some pretty nice things about letzonus.
it gives you control, you dont have to worry about listening to others, and evaluating their words when they point out problems you might have. just laugh it off. the next world is very far away (does it even really exist?) no need to be so solemn and serious and all (the Chovos HaLevovos points this out.)
why you can even thank HK’BH for separating us and elevating us from the Nations during Havdalah, then go into the den and open up the pipes pouring all the Nations, values, talk, immorality, ways of dress, open and subliminal attitudes, nivil peh, prishus, and tumah into ones passive and receptive head. one touch of letzonos and……presto! no problem, no contradiction, all is well.
letzonus is precious.
